About Me

I'm a 30 years old french-canadian architect currently working in Montreal. I also study part-time in publishing at the University of Sherbrooke. My goal is to work for a publishing house specializing in design and architecture, or create my own!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that Couchsurfing is so the best way to travel: i'm interested in meeting locals, participating in neighborhood life, seeing the cities not just as a tourist but as an actor, meeting people from all horizons, open-minded , interested in our experience of life and ready to share, making new friends, etc. Couchsurfing experiences are all differents and they always remain memorable.

Interests

I am crazy for architecture and design... and books! I regularly do yoga, jogging and volleyball. I am very sociable and I love being with friends for a dinner or a drink. I like to travel everytime I have a little time and money available, which is unfortunately not as often as I want it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I really like horror movies, especially zombies movies, like 28 Days Later, Shaun of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Zombieland, The Evil Dead, Night of the Living Dead, Pet Sematary, etc.

Music: I'm listening mostly indie rock, but I like pretty much everything. My favourite group these days are Vampire Week-end, Arcade Fire, The xx, Tame Impala, Passion Pit, C2C, Florence + the Machine, Of Monsters and Men, Alt-J, Miike snow, etc. I'm also listening french canadian music.

Books: My favourite authors are Daniel Pennac, Michel Folco, Fred Vargas, Arnaldur Indridason, Philip Kerr, Kazuo Ishiguro, Haruki Murakami, Jo Nesbo, Ken Follett, George Orwell, etc. I also read a lot of french canadian authors.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've always done the right thing at the right time in my life. At the age of 27, I have been seriously ill (I am now perfectly healthy thankfully) and it made me realize that life is not only made to achieve amazing things, and if you fail at something, it's only to get stronger. It sounds a bit cheesy, but i'm trying to always stay positive no matter what happens. Still working on my zenitude!
